Complaint upheld against Cannondale advert

Good, but they're not the only ones. Simon has got quite used to
me flicking through magazines and tutting. I've also been to some
online bike shops and seen near naked women. That's OK though, I
just won't buy anything made by people who advertise in that way
and I won't use online bike stores with bikini clad women on
their front pages.

Of course, Simon has a nice new shiny Cannondale but, quite
reasonably, I didn't have any say in that purchase. I've still to
buy my new hill bike and it won't be a Cannondale.

As the adjudication said though, I'm not their target market and
I don't suppose they'd be upset about losing my spending power.

Doesn't sound offensive really. OTOH, the current Muddy Fox advert
("Would you like to go down on me?" with two Television-X type trollops)
would make them go apesh*t!

In my defence I hadn't seen the advert when I bought the bike. But
having said that I would probably have bought the bike anyway, 'cause
where else can you get something as cool as a Lefty (apart from a
Whyte, perhaps)?
